Adore Trick of Beauty

"The twelve states of Yunchuan!" Messenger Yelu was full of confidence: "How about it? Your Majesty the Emperor, do you want to give it a try? It is much better than fighting with a bunch of pedantic literati in the hall without any results. "

Xiao Fengming was noncommittal and asked: "What Messenger Yelu means is that both wine and beauty belong to the strong. Is that what he means?"

Messenger Yelu said proudly: "That's natural. What we Qin people admire most is the strong. If His Majesty the Emperor wins, the twelve Yunchuan states will belong to His Majesty the Emperor, and we Qin will withdraw our troops."

Xiao Fengming smiled, but did not point out the flaws in Messenger Yelu's words. Nie Wushuang, who was on the side, was also disdainful in his heart. Although Messenger Yelu said beautifully, if Ying State really won, Qin State agreed to withdraw its troops, but what if they rested and regained their strength and made a comeback?

The ownership of the twelve states of Yunchuan is even more unfounded. Once the Yelu envoy loses, Yelutu kills him on any charge, saying that he made his own decision and it is not the true will of the Qin State. What can be done to him? ? These prizes are probably just a gimmick used by the Yelu envoys to fool them.

Xiao Fengming looked at Gu Qinghong who was meditating on the side and asked, "What do you think, Mr. Gu Xiangguo? Since this negotiation concerns the Three Kingdoms, how can we miss Qi in this archery competition?"

Gu Qinghong smiled: "The Qi State doesn't have anything good to offer."

"Why not!" Yelu envoy shouted: "They said Lingzhou south of Congjiang River..."

Before he could finish speaking, Gu Qinghong interrupted him coldly: "Gu has the emperor's mandate, how can he make decisions on his own? What's more, the south of Congjiang River is originally the land of Qi State. Gu cannot bear the infamy of a century. , just to show off your temporary ambition!"

When Messenger Yelu heard this, his face turned blue and red. Gu Qinghong clearly meant to scold him for arbitrarily deciding the ownership of Qin's land, which was an act of disobedience.

Xiao Fengming laughed at the right time: "Since Gu Xiangguo has no good luck, I will step in for him. If Qi wins the championship, half of the twelve Yunchuan prefectures will be divided with Qi. If Qin wins, I will make the decision and control Cong. How about giving Yanzhou in the north to Qin and withdrawing troops?"

When the envoy Yelu heard this, his eyes couldn't help but shine. Yanzhou to the north of Congjiang River is the place where Qi and Ying have commercial exchanges. It has many merchants and is the throat of both countries. Once Qin gets Yanzhou, wouldn't it mean that it wants to march straight into Qi? Is it easy to do both places?

"Okay! It's a deal!" Messenger Yelu agreed quickly, but halfway through, he hesitated again when he saw the calm look on Xiao Fengming's face, and hesitantly said: "However, it's getting late today, why don't His Majesty the Emperor choose How about we have another grand competition one day?"

"That's fine." Xiao Fengming smiled and said: "Messenger Yelu can also repair the book and go back to talk to your emperor, so that brother Yelu will not say that I am bullying others."

After he finished speaking, he looked at the sky and said calmly: "Go back to the palace."

He picked up Nie Wushuang and mounted his horse, whipping up his whip and galloping away. Gu Qinghong stood there, watching the bright glow-like figure gradually disappearing in front of his eyes, and couldn't help but be stunned for a long time.

Xue Bi, the consort, stepped forward and said with a smile: "Lord Gu Xiangguo, the emperor is so kind to my sister-in-law, and even built a 'phoenix attracting platform' for her. Wow, this is really enviable."

Gu Qing Hongjun's face sank, and when he turned around, he saw the mockery in the eyes of his consort Xue Bi, and immediately understood that he was just trying to make him uncomfortable, so he gave him a cold look and left with a puff of sleeves.

The prince-in-law Xue Bi was not angry either. He shrugged with a smile and turned to leave.

…

Nie Wushuang returned to the palace, freshened up, and then paid a visit to Xiao Fengming. Xiao Fengming changed into regular clothes and read memorials from various places at the Zhenglong Table.

Nie Wushuang thought of today's bet and felt a little uneasy. He stepped forward and asked worriedly: "Your Majesty, is this bet reliable?"

Xiao Fengming looked up from the memorial and stretched out his hand to her: "Come here."

Nie Wushuang walked forward meekly and sat beside him. Xiao Fengming then smiled and said: "Don't worry. Yelutu has no sincerity in this negotiation. He just wants to delay time so that his army can rest."

"Then the emperor knows that he is not sincere, so he still wants to watch him play tricks and start another war?" Nie Wushuang asked.

Xiao Fengming shook his head: "No, I am not idle either. His every move is in my eyes. I am 89% sure of this bet. If the Qin State is really defeated, the Yunchuan Twelve Prefectures of Yelutu will not be able to do anything at all." If you are reluctant to give it to me, then Yingguo will have more excuses to start a war in advance. Do you understand?"

Nie Wushuang thought of his archery skills and was half relieved. She knew that he would not do anything that he was not sure about, but...

Nie Wushuang hesitated for a long time before speaking: "But Gu Qinghong... his archery skills are also very good." After she finished speaking, she felt sad in her heart. When did her heart turn towards Xiao Fengming and become hostile to Gu Qinghong?

Xiao Fengming smiled slightly and held her hand tightly: "Don't worry, have you ever heard of Tian Ji's horse racing? No matter how powerful Gu Qinghong is, he can only fight for one round. I will definitely arrange it when the time comes."

Nie Wushuang's heart moved and he couldn't help but admire: "Your Majesty is a wise man."

…

It was already dark when Nie Wushuang returned to the "Yonghua Palace". After running around for a day and going through so many things, her body was already extremely tired. She lay on the bed with the palace maid waiting on her, but she tossed and turned and couldn't fall asleep. She just felt that there was something unfinished in her heart. After thinking for a long time, she finally stood up suddenly and called Xia Lan who was guarding outside the palace.

"Go and call Eunuch Yang!" she said.

Xia Lan's eyes were bleary: "Eunuch Yang is not on duty. Do you have any instructions?" \u003c

/p\u003e

"Just go and ask him to come!" Nie Wushuang said.

Xia Lan had no choice but to go down. After a while, Yang Zhi hurried over and asked, "What are your orders?" Nie Wushuang stood up and put on a coat casually, without showing off her eyebrows.

Yang Zhi waited patiently. After a long time, Nie Wushuang asked, "Has anyone been gossiping in front of the Emperor lately?"

Yang Zhi was startled: "Probably not, the slaves are taking good care of him."

Nie Wushuang frowned: "Then why did someone report to the emperor that I saw Gu Qinghong after the celebration banquet? Fortunately, he only saw it vaguely. If he saw His Highness Prince Rui, then I..."

She couldn't help but shudder. If Xiao Fengming believed that she was having an affair with His Highness Prince Rui, could he still be so gentle and considerate to her?
